There was a lot of mystery that shrouded music icon Michael Jackson when he was alive, but one thing is for sure: He did not want his kids to be in the spotlight. In fact, he went to great lengths to protect their identities whenever they were in public. Prince, Paris and Blanket were often seen wearing masks on shopping excursions with their world famous dad.

But it’s been almost three years since the King of Pop passed away and now his children seem to be playing by their own rules. Hence the fact that the eldest son, Prince Michael I, has signed on to be a correspondent on “Entertainment Tonight.”

Of course, his sister Paris has already done the talk show circuit with Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres. And in 2011 she signed on to star in the film “Lundon's Bridge and the Three Keys.” But her big brother seemed to be flying under the radar. That is until the 16-year-old’s debut this week on the red carpet at the premiere of “Oz the Great and Powerful.”

Maybe Jacko would have felt his kids were old enough to make the move to center stage. But according to all accounts, he wanted them to wait until they were 18 to get into showbiz. What do you think: Would Michael Jackson approve of his kids itching to be in the spotlight?

This kid has got a tough road ahead of him. Micheal Jackson was at one time a great singer. Freedom of Choice. This is his choice. If he choses to be on the show...it should be up to him...he experienced his own life under his Dad. Its up to him who he choses to share his experiences with.

Show business offspring tend to grow up faster. But regardless, most American kids follow their own vision, not their parents'.

Really could not care less but since when does being the child of a sex molester qualify you to be a tv personality. Is he going to discuss topics like being the survivor of a parent who was crazy and a child molester?

I didn't know Michael Jackson, and so therefore I don't know his standards. So I can't really say whether or not he would approve.

I had to answer NO, for 1 reason, there's no way in hell, an inteligent person could or will believe that either of these 2 beautiful kids are Michael's kids. But I do wish them well.

Even if he managed to changed the color of his skin, if they were his sibblings, they would had been a lot darker, to begin with.

All born to a light-skinned (White) and dark-skinned (Black) parent.

1) You know nothing of Biology (particularly genetics) if you believe that dark-skinned people cannot produce light-skinned offspring (or vice-versa, especially when the parents of said offspring are on different sides of the "color spectrum".).
2) Even if they aren't biologically his children (even though there actually is evidence to suggest that they are), he raised them, ergo, he was their parent.

Michael did not want his kids to be in the limelight. However, he's not here anymore, and Prince is old enough to make his own decisions.

I say he was trained a while before they let him in front of the camera, He did a good job with the interview, It's possible he may have a future being an Interviewer in the future.

His father did his best to keep him out of the spotlight, so I doubt that MJ would be happy...BUT...Prince Michael is his own person now, so he can make his own choices. Maybe MJ would be cool with his son striking out on his own and making a living off the Jackson name. Maybe not.

But Michael was a control freak anyway, so the kids are striking out on their own.

Doesn't really matter because Michael was too selfish to think about what would happen if he weren't around to be uber controlling. He doesn't get to choose anymore.

If he were alive they would still not be in the spot light, he would see to that. But he gone and from the looks of things the grandmother is not stopping them from doing what they want. To me it looks like there is supervision concerning these kids at all.

I don't think Michael would approve this, not because Prince is so young, but because he will be involved with the media and the media kind of destroyed Michael. It just doesn't make sense in my mind.

reply
Undercover Broad 2013/02/20 22:21:18

I'm not sure if MJ would approve, however, I believe MJ wanted his children to have a childhood. His kids are teenagers going into adulthood, therefore, there is not much he could do to prevent them from making a career choice.
